01
The problem
However, fragmented insights across regions and a lack of consolidated research on emerging logistics trends made it challenging to anticipate shifts in automation, labour, and sustainability. Without a unified market outlook, the leadership team faced misaligned priorities across regional units and limited visibility into cross-sector linkages between retail, e-commerce, and 3PL.
To support upcoming leadership reviews, the client required a comprehensive market study to create a common 5–10-year perspective on the future of intralogistics.
